I have been ripped off. How can I protect myself.

Hi,

I hope I won’t be molesting anyone with this post but I didn’t know where to post it else.

A guy stole a script (code and design) I made a while ago to make a WordPress plugin and added it to the WordPress plugin directory without even asking or mentioning me as the original author (sorry, I won’t give any links or name here, that would be very inappropriate). On his site he even claims this plug-in is based one of HIS wordpress theme which is actually a free WordPress theme I made 1 year ago. How can I contact an administrator to have it removed from the Plugin Directory?

Off topic, could you have a “report” link on the plugin page (in sidebar) to report such incident? That would be a nice option to protect original authors of being ripped off.

Thanks in advance!
